Valuation
Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.
Seeded from NOC's reported EPS growth of -9.6% a year over 4 years.
- EPS in 5 years
- $17.59
- Implied price
- $351.89
- Return from $585.87
- -9.7% a year
To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $174.95 — -70.1% below today's price.
How sensitive is that answer?
Annual return across nearby assumptions. If the result is only attractive in one corner, that is the finding.
| growth \ P/E | 14 | 17 | 20 | 23 | 26 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -19.6% | -25.2% | -22.3% | -19.7% | -17.4% | -15.4% |
| -14.6% | -20.6% | -17.4% | -14.7% | -12.3% | -10.1% |
| -9.6% | -15.9% | -12.6% | -9.7% | -7.1% | -4.8% |
| -4.6% | -11.3% | -7.7% | -4.7% | -2.0% | 0.4% |
| 0.4% | -6.6% | -2.9% | 0.3% | 3.1% | 5.7% |
This is arithmetic on assumptions you chose, not a forecast or a recommendation. It ignores dividends, buybacks, share issuance and debt, and it assumes a company still earning money in 5 years. Change any input and the answer changes a lot — that sensitivity is the honest result, not a flaw in the model.

… performance becomes almost secondary. The Navy Builds Mother Ships Characteristically, the Navy took longer to get there, but it is getting there. In the mid-2010s, Northrop Grumman’s X-47B proved that an unmanned aircraft could launch from and land on an aircraft carrier; no small trick, considering that carrier aviation is one of the most demanding operating environments on earth (as I know from first-hand Navy experience).
